 * Delete, small and insignificant shopping mall. Fails WP:GNG. Ajf773 (talk) 18:35, 18 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep for now, there is some coverage on the mall apart from the bomb scare. The article is good but needs some improvement but most importantly references. Karl Twist (talk) 11:47, 26 July 2017 (UTC)
 * WP:MUSTBESOURCES. please provide actual evidence. LibStar (talk) 11:51, 26 July 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete Notable only for a small locale event not covered under WP:GEOSCOPE.--SamHolt6 (talk) 14:39, 1 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete. Doesn't appear to meet GNG. I looked long and hard for references because if the claims in the "Beginnings" section are true, I would expect national or at least regional coverage. No luck, though, so I also question whether the unreferenced claims in the article are factual. ~ Rob 13 Talk 03:23, 3 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete: the content is very difficult to verify and the claim to general notability is flimsy.   Dr Strauss   talk   please use when replying 09:06, 3 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Kmart where I have added a single sentence edit sourced to a leading Australian daily. Reason is, that although my searches turn up only ROUTINE coverage of Burwood One, a newish shopping mall ("Santa will arrive at Burwood One on...",) the Burwood One site and building that was Australia's first Kmart.   In Australia in 1969, the advent of Kmart was a big deal.  And the fact that it was a big deal in 1969 was revisited in the press when this mall replace Kmart in 2010.E.M.Gregory (talk) 16:57, 3 August 2017 (UTC)
 * That redirect seems like it may be a surprise; does a general reader who searches "Burwood One" expect to end up on "Kmart"? ~ Rob 13 Talk 18:11, 3 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Redirect - The claim to fame seems to be that it was the first Kmart in Australia, and there was a minor bomb scare that turned out to be a broken toy. The only item worthy here is the Kmart history, and turns out there's a Kmart Australia article. I added Burwood One info there as well, and placed the main template in the Kmart section []. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Timtempleton (talk • contribs)
